About the event

SHI Summer Lecture Series: Ursala Kadusné Hudson
Interdisciplinary artist and Chilkat weaver Ursala Kadusné Hudson will present her talk, “The Gendered Burden of Cultural Continuity.”

The lecture will explore the often-invisible labor of cultural survival carried by historically female-gendered Indigenous art forms such as weaving, sewing and beading. Hudson will examine how these practices, which are often dismissed as “craft” or domestic work, are foundational to Indigenous sovereignty, memory and resilience.

Hudson will also share how her groundbreaking project, a three-dimensional woven Chilkat totem pole, is an example of how care, ceremony and generational knowledge are embedded in material practices.

Themes of the presentation include the patriarchal valuation of “fine art” over “craft,” Indigenous feminist theories of rematriation and the role of intergenerational care in artmaking.
